'92 Lumina Euro 3.4:

Battery (won't start at -20 without battery charger or jump-start)

Head gaskets and valve job (no functional problem yet, but I suspect the gaskets are beginning to deteriorate, and I've seen what exhaust valves look like on these engines.)

Block heater and probably alternator while heads are off

Perhaps tires

Polish the damned cloudy headlight lenses.

 

'93 Lumina Euro 3.4

Possibly battery

Trans overhaul (Trans currently has one "Park" and six neutrals)

Speedometer repair (Needle pegged at 120-something)

X-laces and tires

Polish the damned cloudy headlight lenses.

Took me a second to put that one together :lol:

 

As for my Grand Prix, my immediate wants are tinted windows, and stock dual exhaust. I wish these 3800s didn't sound like dick, otherwise, I'd be after some magnaflows or something.

One one forum ppl get their panties in a bunch when ppl do not use a search function and make a similar thread so I guess a bump shouldn't`t be an issue I suppose.

 

I want a W-body Cutlass Supreme but in RWD format. LS1, maybe LS7 corvette engine or some futuristic experimental engine that only TPTB elite are aware of. Also a 1994 Olds CS HUD unit and a UB3 digi cluster and the patience to install both:D

GMPP springs? Care to elaborate a bit? I've been looking for something with better performance than stock, but doesn't lower the car. I might just have to put these on my car's wish list...which also has rocker rust and strut tower rust repair on it as well, lol.

GMPP = General Motors Performance Parts. The springs were offered from GM back in the day but there aren't a whole lot of them out there and you can't get them new anymore. I was lucky and happened to fall into a used set another member was selling. From what I've read it is a very slight drop from stock but maintains good ride quality and handling. I have B&G lowering springs on my car right now and it rides like a brick on a bowl of jelly :lol:.

Ok cool, thanks! I knew GMPP was GM Performance Parts, just never saw they're springs. Did they ever come stock on any cars?

 

You may want to look into vogtlands they are very similar to the gmpp springs. And mike I regret selling those to you now lol

No they didn't come on police package cars. Those cars do have stiffer gmpp springs but they raise the car a bit. These gmpp springs only came as a aftermarket lowering kit (0.8" drop) with koni struts which has been discontinued.

Since my car has changed since the first time I posted in here, I'll do another one. My "wish list" is way more extravagant than what'll be reality..obviously

 

 

-Gen V w/ FS I/C + all the goodies associated with that swap

-Some sort of cam whether it be XP, S1X, VS

-Headers*install my TOGs that have been sitting in my friends garage for 2 years :lol: :facepalm: *

-Catback of some kind + GSX cutouts for duals

-Lifter replacement

-Trans build

 

-Vogtlands+KYB's

-Re-shoot the car black and silver

-Re-chrome the stock wheels

-All LED interior

-Replace lower radiator core support(only real place the car has rust)

 

That's all I can think of at the moment.
